As I grow, I can appreciate the difference each of my friends possess, but the more people I meet, the more I realize we are all in the same boat. One way most 20-something-year-old women are the same is our sometimes helpful, but mainly pointless items we have in our bed rooms.
1. At least one chocolate bar or piece of candy.
I am being conservative saying one piece, because if you are anything like me nothing can quench your sweet tooth. Always make sure you are properly stocked up at least three days before your Aunt Flo comes to visit.
2. A bunch of cups or empty water bottles.
At this point in our lives, we love to stay hydrated, but are still too lazy to take the glasses back to the kitchen or recycle the water bottles. (If you're not recycling please start right now!)
3. A shirt that you've had for years, yet never worn.
You like it enough to keep it in your closet for the last two years, but you never seen to find the time to wear it. *Bonus if it still has the tag on it!*
4. Several half used chapsticks.
This epidemic reaches further than just the young women in the population, but it is undeniable that we cannot finish a single chapstick without losing it or accidentally starting a new one.
5. Nine pairs of identical black leggings.
They are a good base for any outfit, you can dress them up or keep them casual. Leggings are the best strictly because of the comfort factor.
6. Nail polishes that are only different by a shade.
"I need them all because they each have a different feeling." But at the end of the day, your nails end up being a smudged disaster.
7. Every bra you have ever bought.
If you have been the same size for a while, you most likely have kept all your bras. They're expensive, so if you take care of them, you can get many years out of them. (Well, you have every bra besides the few that decided to attack your chest with underwire.)
8. An expired coupon from your favorite store.
You got it in the mail. You wanted to use it. It expired... three months ago, but it is still on your desk.
9. That sweatshirt that you're not sure whose it was originally.
You're not sure if it came from an old boyfriend, middle school best friend, or maybe one of your cousins, but it is super comfy and you wear it all the time.
10. A pillow case with a few mascara stains on it.
Whether it be from crying or pure laziness of not wanting to take off your makeup, every girl has at least a few of these pesky stains. (PSA: if these came from crying over a boy fill the pillow case with something heavy and chuck it at him for ruining your makeup and your bedding.)
